» Reading for Pleasure and Profit 


A list of certain books which young people find 
entertaining; being chiefly books which older 


readers enjoyed when they were young 


All that Mankind has done, thought, gained or been; it is lying 
as in magic preservation in the pages of Books. They are the chosen 


possessions of men. va 
Carlyle—Heroes and Hero Worship. 


Fourth Revision 


Published by the Public Library 
For High School Students and other Readers 
Newark, N. J. 1926 


Note of Explanation 


This list has grown out of actual experience in suggesting books to 
young people. It is not a list of the world’s greatest books: rather, it 
is a list of the books which the young men and women in high schools, 
especially in the Barringer High School of Newark, N. J., have found 
attractive and have read with pleasure and profit. 

Certain instructors in this school compiled it several years ago. 
Before its first printing, in 1908, it was revised by its chief compiler, 
Miss Margaret Coult, in conference with Miss Sara C. Van de Carr 
and Miss Marjary L. Gilson of the Public Library. In 1911 and again 
in 1913 this list was revised and rearranged by Miss Coult. 

The division into eight parts has been made for convenience in 
suggesting books to pupils from fourteen to eighteen years of age in 
the several high school grades. 

All the books in the list are in the High School Library and also in 
the Public Library, the more popular ones being duplicated many times. 
The titles most often called for are also in some of the branches. 

Books marked H are recommended by the History Department, 


either as being valuable history or as helping to create the background . 


of historic events, or build up the impression of an historic character. 
H marking an entire section indicates that all items of that section 
are recommended. In the same way, § marks books recommended by 
the Science Department. 
John Cotton Dana.

Fourth and revised edition by its chief compiler, Miss Margaret 
Coult in conference with Miss Marguerite Kirk of the Public Library.
